Ezekiel 39:8-10

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

⁸ Behold, it is coming and it will be brought about, says the Lord God. That is the day of which I have spoken.

⁹ “Then those who dwell in the cities of Israel will go forth and make fires of the weapons and burn them, shields and bucklers, bow and arrows, handpikes and spears, and they will make fires of them for seven years; ¹⁰ so that they will not need to take wood out of the field or cut down any out of the forests, for they will make their fires of the weapons; they will despoil those who despoiled them, and plunder those who plundered them, says the Lord God.
